Patient 2

This is the case of an 8-year-old boy with congenital microtia on the right side. At this age, the child is attending school, and due to the ear deformity, he is often teased by friends, which causes him to lose confidence and affects his psychological development. After being examined and consulted by Associate Professor Dr. Nguyễn Hồng Hà regarding the surgical method and materials for constructing the ear cartilage framework with MedPor technique, the family chose to use an artificial cartilage framework due to the following advantages: Image of the child's ear one month after surgery using the artificial cartilage framework.

Patient 4

Is getting a new ear exciting? Let's take a look at the expression of this beautiful 5-year-old girl. Before the surgery, she appeared a bit sad and thoughtful. Perhaps she was worried about starting school next year and whether her classmates might tease her for having small ears. Her parents decided to give her a new ear using MedPor artificial cartilage with endoscopic assistance, the most advanced technique in the world for reconstructing small ears like Microtia. Two months after the surgery, her face looks incredibly bright and cheerful. Even with short hair, her innocent joy shines through. The last photo is a close-up of her new ear, with the cartilage framework clearly visible and the skin covering it smooth. That’s why both she and her parents are so happy.

Patient 5

This boy received operation with MedPor technique by Dr. Nguyen Hong Ha since he was 5 year old in 2020. After 2 months of operation, he had had wonderful reconstructive ears (picture 2). He is now very happy with his new year at his current age of 9.

Patient 6

This 5-year-old buddy, not even two months after surgery, already has his new ear looking much less swollen. Now, he has to think hard to remember which side is the old ear and which is the new one. When asked if the surgery was painful, he even pulls out photos from the surgery day to show everyone, proudly saying he didn’t feel any pain or worry at all that day! 😊

My child has a congenital ear defect, so he has a hearing loss. Will ear reconstruction make my child hear better?

Answer: Children need to be examined at an ear specialist first to determine the cause of the hearing loss. Most people with a disability only have the deformity in the outer ear and the inner ear is normal. If the cause of your hearing loss is the absence of the ear canal,  surgery  is a good choice. of shaping the outer ear, creating the outer ears and the ear canal can improve the patient’s hearing. Medpor method can be done for children over 3 years old. Get to know more

What complications can occur for deformed ear reconstructive surgery?

The most common complications associated with ear reconstructive surgery are: • Necrosis of the skin • Infection • Scarring and hair loss • Trauma to the lung, Chest wall deformity (if using  ) To understand why complications can occur it should be seen that ear reconstruction is a very complex process as shown below. According to the traditional method of using autologous rib cartilage, the surgical process consists of many stages. The first stage is to remove a few pieces of cartilage from the ribs on the chest, sculpture them to become the frame of the ear and then implant it under the scalp in site of the defective ear. Then, it takes many operations to lift the ear frame off the scalp, create the grooves behind the ears, cover the cartilage frame, skin graft on the scale and adjust other details of the ears. With many such operations, the risk of complications is possible. According to the Medpor method, using porous polyethylene ear frame with artificial synthetic tissue to shape ears, although the advantage is that it only undergoes one surgery but requires delicate dissecting techniques to remove the temporal flap from the layer under the scalp to cover the plastic frame and skin grafting should be taken from the patient own thigh or abdomen. Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Hong Ha, who has successfully performed many ear-defected or microtia reconstructions at the Vietnam-Germany Friendship Hospital, said: When performing difficult techniques, if the surgeon is not experienced, not only this will result in poorly reconstructive ears, which may also increase the risk of complications.   #earreconstructionsurgery #methodofusingautologousribcartilage #EarMedpormethod

Another advantage of Endoscopic ear reconstruction method

This is a 5-year-old child with Lobule-type microtia who underwent endoscopic ear reconstruction using Medpor implant. The new ear was completely reconstructed in a single surgical stage, with results exceeding expectations. Here, we can see that with endoscopic assistance, the patient experienced mild postoperative hair shedding during the first two to three weeks. However, within two to three months, hair regrowth was excellent, completely covering the scar behind the ear.

Collaboration among experts from Vietnam and the BFIRST on Microtia treatment

Approximately 1 in 4,000 babies in Southeast Asia are born with 1 or two missing/barely developed ears in a congenital condition called microtia. This condition is often associated with atresia which is a non-development of the ear canal. The middle and inner ears are usually present, but the sound cannot reach those structures and so the child cannot hear in the affected side. Thus, patients with microtia and atresia suffer from both the stigma of deformity and the disability of deafness. If both sides are affected this is particularly disabling. In addition, the volume of motorbikes in Vietnam and the lack of full-face helmets leads to frequent ear avulsion injuries. These require reconstruction. Vietnam has been making significant strides in treating microtia. For instance, the British Foundation for International Reconstructive Surgery and Training (BFIRST) has been collaborating with local teams in Hanoi to develop advanced ear reconstruction techniques. These efforts have resulted in a strong ear reconstruction service that uses single-stage surgery and minimizes scarring. Additionally, there are ongoing efforts to improve hearing restoration for patients with microtia and atresia. Specialists are working on implementing surgical implant techniques to address congenital deafness.
